Yeah but the problem is that the common perception of adult single men over 30-35 living with their parents in America have something wrong with them.

When Richard Jewell was wrongfully accused of being the Atalanta Olympic bomber, Sean Hannity himself remarked on the fact of Jewell living with his mother might lead to speculation of him being a weirdo ( http://www.constitution.org/mil/ga/cpb_6801.txt )

Also I can't recall any positive views of such men since the 50s in books or films. (Willard, Psycho, Dummy)

Im sorry if you feel stimatized but it's a common societal view I'm afraid.

Im a girl and I didnt leave home until 25 and that felt really odd.

I just can't imagine being a guy and not striking out on my own path. But to each their own I guess................
